Review on πŸ’‘ MEAN WELL NES-350-12 12V 350W UL Listed Switching Power Supply 110-240V by Prentice Martin

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Good stable supply.

Works great. Well built aluminum case, temperature controlled fan, terminal block cover. I picked it up last week to replace what seemed like a bad cheap Chinese 120w PSU in my Prusa i3 kit which turned out to be fine. I was going to replace it at some point anyway to make room for another extruder, so I just use a cheap stock of my filament extruder and leave it in place. After several days of writing breaks, including a couple of 3 hour jobs with no issues, I feel like it's time to reconsider this power supply. Pros: Stable voltage, good case, RU certified, temperature controlled fan. Cons: Fan works. damn loud. It doesn't matter if I'm tied to a humming and whirring FDM machine, but in a quiet room with the lights on or whatever, it will be very noticeable. If I'm building my next car I'll probably buy one of these again, would definitely recommend.

Pros
  • AC input range selectable by switch
Cons
  • Negative impression
